SO YOU PICK A BOX AT RANDOM AND YOU CLUTCH IT TIGHTLY TO YOUR CHEST.

YOU ARE THEN GIVEN THE OPTION TO OPEN UP ONE OF THE 2 BOXES ON THE TABLE, (THE TWO THAT YOU DIDN'T PICK), AND SEE WHAT'S INSIDE.

OOH. WELL WHADD'YA KNOW, IT'S A VOUCHER FOR DOG****.

SO NOW YOU'RE LEFT WTH JUST 2 UNOPENED BOXES. ONE UNOPENED BOX IS STILL ON THE TABLE AND ONE UNOPENED BOX IS BEING TIGHTLY CLUTCHED TO YOUR CHEST.

ONE OF THESE BOXES CONTAINS THE CASTLE VOUCHER, AND THE OTHER CONTAINS THE DOG**** VOUCHER.


...HOW CAN THE ODDS OF PICKING THE MEDIEVAL CASTLE BOX BE ANYTHING OTHER THAN 1-IN-2, REGARDLESS OF ANY LAST MINUTE SWITCH??
